IMPORTANT NOTE

Due to a number of stone steps the villa is NOT suitable for those with mobility issues. Please also note that we have a stair gate at the top of the external stairs, but we have no internal stair-gates. We also have an infinity pool with a sheer drop so children of any age must be supervised by a responsible adult at all times and should not be allowed to use floatation devices such as lilos, inflatable boats or similar without an adult due to the potential to float over the sheer edge of the infinity pool.

Very young babies are welcome and a travel cot and high chair can be provided.

A M A Z I N G

Myself and my family stayed here in August to celebrate my 60th birthday.

This was our 2nd visit to Kalkan but the first time in this villa. We were excited to stay at Villa Jaysea. It looked stunning from the photos, and we were not disappointed from the minute we arrived. It was immaculate with a huge amount of indoor and outdoor space and suited our family of 3 children and 5 adults very nicely. It really is an amazing villa, awesome!

Joanna the owner is extremely helpful and went above and beyond to help my daughter in law organise some special birthday treats for my 60th birthday, thank you very much. Joanna even went out of her way to call us from the UK on our first day to check everything was OK.

We spent many days lazing by the pool admiring the amazing view across Kalkan bay whilst sipping Effes watching the children enjoy themselves for hours in the infinity pool. My grandchildren, twin boys (aged 4 & grandaughter (aged 7) absolutely loved it and want to return. They speak of the villa and Kalkan frequently saying how much they miss it.

I would highly recommend you book the local chef Kazim to cook for you at the villa. The food was amazing, what one man on his own can produce in a few hours is outstanding. Kazim was also cooking for the villa next door the following day and kindly popped in to give our 3 children a chocolate bar, such a sweet guy!

Kalkan itself is beautiful and quaint and can be reached by a short 10-15min downhill stroll. With so so many rooftop restaurants with such good quality food , it was hard to choose where to eat. All the people in the various bars/ restaurants were so friendly and welcoming.

Ramazan & Songul (poolman & his wife) kept the villa spotless.They looked after us brilliantly. You must come and stay here, it is fabulous.

A day hasn't gone by since returning home that I haven't thought about my holiday in Kalkan and Villa Jaysea. Like my grandchildren say, I too, miss everything.

I sooooooooooooooooooo want to come back here.

For those of you who follow Strictly Come Dancing - in the style of Craig Revell Horwood - this villa is A M A Z I N G

Ps Joanna - Many thanks for all your help supporting Mel to arrange the various surprises for my 60th birthday. I will never ever forget it. I so want to come back.

amazing! A real haven!

This has been our fourth trip to kalkan and each time we have stayed at Joanna's villas, three times and Jaysea and once at the lovely Amycha. Each time it just gets better and better......the villas are a real haven. We have extremely busy lives and so we relax the minute we arrive. The villas are so well equipped, are so beautiful and are maintained so well. The information in the villa is so detailed and so broad that we didn't have to do any time consuming investigating ourselves which meant we wasted no time of the wonderful holiday. Each one of the recommendations that we availed ourselves of were amazing! The "in villa" massage, Mahal in the evening, our boat trip, Kazim, the chef who cooks at the villa. Even details like the recommended taxi driver etc makes it so easy to sit back and relax! The villa is equipped for all ages....i have four children between the ages of 15 and 18 months and it was great for them all...of course the xbox was used well!

Thoroughly amazing and would thoroughly recommend. Joanna goes above and beyond as nothing is too much for her. She booked some of our outings and arranged our massage! Truly a fabulous, second to none, service!! Thank you thank you thank you!!

Beautiful villa

We were a party of 5 staying at Jay Sea. The villa was immaculate and very luxurious. Joanna the owner had thought of everything, from the daily bread delivery to the very useful information booklet, giving lots of advice on restaurants and trips in Kalkan. The games area was good fun for the times when you need to get out of the sun for a while. Overall, we had a really lovely holiday and would definitely recommend this villa.

Hi spec property with excellent facilities

Fantastic modern and luxurious villa in Kalkan. Joanna the owner is more than helpful and ensured our holiday was to the high standard we expected. We had been used to the Exclusive Escapes villa experience for our previous holidays in Kalkan and this villa was excellent for comfort and luxury.

I want to go back ....now!

What an amazing stay we had at Villa Jaysea, Kalkan. We were extremely fortunate to be able to secure the May half term week and we only wished we could of stayed longer. The villa itself was so tastefully decorated and elegantly stylish. There were four of us that stayed – 3 adults and one child. We were spoilt for choice with bedrooms. All four double bedrooms were generously sized with inbuilt wardrobes. One room which homed two double beds was located on the ground floor – this worked for my 7 year old son and mother in law, and for us who were on the second floor!

The villa itself was extremely well equipped with kitchen utensils, English TV (not that we used it very often but it was good to know we had). The games terrace on the ground floor housed table tennis, billiards and when you turned the table over, changed to an air hockey table – didn’t realise how competitive we were.

The infinity pool was stunning and to be able to look onto the beautiful sea view was simply breath taking. Well done on the colour schemes of the beach towels, really bright and cheery and we loved outside beds.

What a pretty town Kalkan is with great shops & restaurants. When we were there, it was quiet as it looks as though people could be avoiding Turkey, but we felt extremely safe and I would say it is not to be avoided as you’ll be missing out. The people are lovely and couldn’t do enough for us when we were there … just a note to self to take more money with me next year as I could of spent soooo much more on handbags and shoes!!

My husband, whom is a man of few words let alone emotion said it was the best holiday he’d had – so that’s a testament in itself!

Can’t wait to return and we have booked the same dates next year for 10 days this time. Roll on May 2017 x

Map

Car: not necessary

The Turquoise Coast/Lycia region

Marmaris to Antalya the coastline is gorgeous, the weather is beautiful and there are heaps of things to see and do. The Turquoise coast has become the first choice for many first time and repeat visitors to Turkey. Between Fethiye and Antalya there are a loads of sites worth seeing, Lycian , Dorian, Roman, whatever. Highlights include Myra, Simena, and just about everything in the Xanthos valley, not forgetting the magical site at Olympos. Your best bases for these excursions are probably Hisaronu or Kalkan, any further East and the Xanthos stuff starts to become a little hard to get to. The coastline is green and spectacular, the beaches are great and it is here, usually via Dalaman or Antalya airports, that the charter planes bring the bulk of Turkey's summer visitors. There are still plenty of places that not everyone gets to - Kalkan and the neighbourimg town of Kas being the most up market and least affected by mass tourism. You can hire a car or just get on the myriad of small buses running up and down the coast, the effort and expense will be repaid. British newspaper The Independent listed Kalkan among the best tourist destinations for 2007. The paper recommended Kalkan especially for those seeking a romantic vacation and who do not want to travel far from their home country in Europe.

Kalkan

The historic town of Kalkan is an enchanting place and one of the most beautiful locations along Turkey's gorgeous Lycian Coast. With the absence of mass tourism, Kalkan remains a charming and unspoiled haven of lush nature, brilliant blue crystal-clear sea, historic architecture, ancient history and warm traditional Turkish hospitality.

The area of Kalkan that Villa JaySea is located - Kiziltas - overlooks both the beautiful bays of Kalkan and Kalamar but is only a 10-15 minute easy walk (or 11TL 3 minute taxi ride!) down to the harbour and the buzzing old town.

Kalkan is an old fishing town, and the only safe harbor between Kas and Fethiye; it is famous for its white-washed houses, descending to the sea, its brightly colored bougainvilleas and its vast array of amazing roof terrace restaurants with spectacular sea and island views - it is said that it is impossible to get a bad meal in Kalkan!

Within its sheltered bay guests can enjoy the delights of a day (or 2 or 3!) onboard one of the many Gulet yachts or lounging at one of the 7 or more 'Beach Clubs' and enjoying their watersport provision and restaurants. Further afield a trip to the amazing Saklikent Gorge makes a popular day trip, take a trip to the lovely town of Kas just 29km away along the scenic coastal road, visit the ancient sunken city of Kekova or head up into the mountains to visit a Trout Farm restaurant in the neighbouring mountain village of Islamar overlookimg Kalkan.

Four wheel drive safais, cannoing, learning to scuba dive and taking a trek on horseback on the nearby 18km long sandy beach at Patara are all popular visitor pastimes.

Kalkan averages 300 days of sunshine a year. Although part of the Antalya province administratively, Kalkan is connected more closely to Fethiye economically and for transportation.

Private transfers from Dalaman Airport take 90 minutes and we can arrange these for you.

Your uniformed driver will greet you at the airport and you will be transferred direct to Villa JaySea in an air conditioned vehicle suitable for your group size: cars, people carriers and mini buses - all with DVD players and TV screens.
